Answer:
1/2
Explanation:
Let's assume that the allele "p" is responsible for PKU in the homozygous state. According to the given information, both the parents are unaffected by the disorder but have an affected child. This means that both the parents carry at least one copy of the recessive allele responsible for the disease. Therefore, the genotype of each of the parents is Pp. A cross between Pp and Pp would produce progeny in following ratio=
Pp x Pp = 1/4 PP: 1/2/ Pp: 1/4 pp
Therefore, the probability that their next child will carry just one recessive allele is 1/2.
Answer:
ameoba
Explanation:
ameobas are single celled organisims
Answer:
See the answer below
Explanation:
Recall that: <em>Water potential = pressure potential + solute potential</em>
Since the system is an open one;
<em>Water potential = solute potential = -iCRT</em>
i = number of particles the molecle will make in water (1)
C = molar concentration
R = Pressure constant = 0.0831 liter bar/mole K
T = temperature in kelvin = 22 + 273 = 295 K
To calculate water potential on side A:
C = 1 M
Water potential = - (1 x 1 x 0.0831 x 295) = -24.51 bars
For side B:
C = 2 M
Water potential = - (1 x 2 x 0.0831 x 295) = -49.03 bars
b.
<em>Since side A has higher water potential than side B, water will flow from side A to side B until equilibrium is established between the two sides. Water always flows from the region of higher water potential to the region of lower water potential.</em>
